Just as djokovic used his 2010 Davis cup success as a springboard to world domination in 2011, The Tradesman has used Olympic hardware as a tool to carve out a new era...

And he used it much like a ******* file, chipping and prodding and grooving away against the grain of the djokovic game...The Tradesman knows where he's from...he's from ******* Scotland... wind...? What wind...? Young Andy was hitting slice backhands in hurricanes from the age of two...there are no sharper set of tools to go to work with...

The prophecy was foretold at the olympics and the weather gods responded...

yes... greetings... and thank you for your kind words... yes, indeed, it was the mighty scot Clydey McTaggart who bonded with me in a homo-erotic-yet-still-very-non-gay-80's-action-hero-man-hug-kinda-way as we shared a love for the brand of brutality only a bloodthirsty scot can deliver...

as we look forward... into the not too distant future... a prophecy has been foretold... and the prophecy has been realised...

good citizens of the forum... it will not be long now... and it will be the most enjoyable wait...

I've always called Andy Mr. Magic, but I think The Tradesman 'as portrayed by Fast_Clay' is anything but pedestrian! As well as hilarious [and I love a good laugh], it's very, very clever. I won't be using it either, but I definately like it. I hope Fast_Clay will treat us to a bit more in the near future......perhaps when Andy wins his next slam!

yes but you shouldn't have to have read fast_clay in order to understand its deep meaning Caz. While I have happily yelled 'come on Mr Magic' when at an Andy match I somehow don't think 'come on The Tradesman' would have the same ring about it
